July @ THE MET

 

July 2022   Celebrating Disability at The Met To celebrate Disability Pride Month, we're pleased to present a few highlights from our ongoing social media project #MetAccess. This monthly feature, which debuted in July 2020 in honor of the thirtieth anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, welcomes Disabled and Deaf artists to reflect on a specific work from The Met collection that sparks their curiosity or inspires them.
